3D Printed Responsive Spider Dress

If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to increase the space between you and strangers in public settings, a piece of futuristic clothing dubbed “Spider Dress” is about to make all your 2015 dreams come true.

From the mind of engineer and designer Anouk Wipprecht, “Spider Dress” is a piece of wearable technology that combines 3D printing with animatronic mechanics to create a truly sci-fi fashion experience.

A series of skeletal-like limbs “respond to external stimuli” thanks to a configuration proximity and respiration sensors, meant to “defend the personal space of the wearer.”
